i know the key word is "recoil" but, I'm reading a nuclear fission book and it keeps bringing up "fission recoil fragments" "recoil particles" what exactly are these particls? how are they formed? are they different from other ionizing particles other than the fact that they recoil?
A scientist was using thin sheets of aluminum (.57mg/cm thcik) to reflect the particles of neutron bombarded uranium. by measuring the radioactivity in each sheet he obtained a rough absorption curve 2.2+/- .2
